One teacher told me she understood that student work can’t be posted on the Internet. Do they sign some kind of release form? "I just had a question from the High School about students publishing work on sites such as glogster, prezi, animoto, etc. These are Web 2.0 sites that allow for students to create free presentations that are housed on their sites. Teachers want to know about the legality when it comes to the school system permission slip that is required for all student work to be published on our website. If a student does it on these type of websites do we still need a permission slip signed?" Legal Disclaimers http://www.marietta-city.org/legal.php
Susan F.- Don't know about posting student work on the internet. What does the Acceptable Use form say?
Leha L.- We have a form in the office that teachers must use before posting on the Internet.
Stacey B. First Response- Paperwork is required for posting student work on the school system site. If the teacher is uploading work posted on the system site to a third party site, the paperwork should have been completed. If the student is directly posting their work to a third party site (non-school) system, then there are no paperwork requirements.
Stacey B. Second Response- In regards to the art or student work on the internet. There is a Marietta Policy currently in place if any teacher wants to upload any type of student work they need to have permission for each piece of work that the student created. So if a student did an essay, a piece of artwork, and did a musical composition, each would require one permission slip per piece of work. (Principals are to have copies of this form.)
Stacey Third Response- Due to FERPA and copyright/intellectual property rights all student work that is posted on-line for public review must have signed permission. Art teachers may continue to post student artwork within the school building without signed releases. Signed releases are for the protection of the student as once the work is posted on the Internet it can be stolen.
